Description

This recipe for apple bars is easy to make with simple baking ingredients, diced apples, and walnuts for a fruity treat that tastes like apple pie.

Ingredients

1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup peeled, cored, and diced tart apples (such as Granny Smith)
1 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8-inch square baking pan.
2 Stir sugar, melted butter, and egg together in a large bowl. Mix in flour, cinnamon, and baking soda, then stir in apple and walnuts. Spread batter into the prepared pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until a small knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into nine bars.
